Try SML/NJ, http://cm.bell-labs.com/cm/cs/what/smlnj. I'm not sure it
qualifies as using the "stack as normal" but it does heap allocate
frames and generate native x86 code.


You may also want to have a look at Mjolner Beta. I've not poked at
the internals so it is possible it does not heap allocate frames but
I'd be surprised if it didn't given the structure of the Beta
language. See http://www.mjolner.com/mjolner-system/index_en.php for
more information.
